Feature changed by: Petr Gajdos (pgajdos) Feature #313536, revision 14 Title: Get rid of SuSEconfig.fonts openSUSE Distribution: Implementation Priority Requester: Mandatory Projectmanager: Mandatory Requested by: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: There is no point to run that code after installation of every package (and it's not run when you use zypper or 3rd party tools anyways). That code should be only run as a part of post-install of the fonts packages as only those are affected. Relations: - Remove SuSEconfig (feature/id: 100011) Discussion: #1: Petr Gajdos (pgajdos) (2012-07-03 17:13:23) Added "fontpackage" package to the M17N:fonts. fontpackage is intended to common runtime deps of every font package (e. g. /usr/share/fonts/truetype) and fontpackage-devel for buildtime dependency of every font package. fontpackage-devel contains only one file for now, which installs on /etc/rpm/macros.fonts-config. For details see osc cat M17N:fonts fontpackage rpm-macros.fonts-config Example of modified font package is M17N:fonts/xano-mincho-fonts. Could you please express your opinion on this plan? #2: Petr Gajdos (pgajdos) (2012-07-04 09:39:25) (reply to #1) After rethinking I've choosen fontpackages-runtime and fontpackages- devel. #3: Thorsten Kukuk (kukuk) (2012-07-06 14:37:38) I'm not a fonts expert, but looks good to me, beside one thing I don't really like: fontpackages-runtime contains only one directory. I think we should drop that package and package the directory inside of the RPMs which contains fonts. This has the big advantage, that RPM will take care of the directory itself, if the last package using it is removed. Or the directory should be added to filesystem directory, which includes already the parent directory. #4: Petr Gajdos (pgajdos) (2012-07-10 21:32:54) Ok, submitted fontpackages package into factory. sr#127540. + #5: Petr Gajdos (pgajdos) (2012-07-11 13:47:20) + As far as I can tell, M17N:fonts are ready for removing SUSEconfig. + fonts.
